Understanding Your Metabolism

Introduction

Having a ‘slow metabolism’ is an oft used or heard phrase whenever difficulty in weight management is spoken about. Because of this, most people have an abstract understanding of what metabolism is, and what it means to have a fast or slow one.

However, many would have trouble accurately defining or explaining what metabolism is and does. Metabolism affects far more than preventing unwanted weight gain, although its effects in this area are certainly important to everyone.

This eBook explains in an easily understood manner what metabolism is and how critical it is to our whole-body functioning. It also explains how metabolic rate does affect weight gain and loss, as well as fat accumulation.

There are chapters on the effects of diet on metabolism, including high protein and low carb dietary effects.
